Product Description
From the Manufacturer
Ordinary Toslink Cables with Ordinary Construction Deliver Ordinary Sound While the variety of digital sources on the market continues to grow, the availability of high quality fiber optic cables has lagged far behind. Cables with Toslink connections abound; finding one that lives up to the level of performance required by a digital source however, is no easy task. In fact, most Toslink cables feature second - rate construction and cheap materials. The result? Inferior data transfer--a landmine for the enthusiast in search of the better sound digital components are capable of delivering. Interlink¨ LightSpeed 100 Fiber Optic Cable: Precision Polishing and Rugged Design Make the Difference LightSpeed 100 offers high performance and value in a durable design.
A high density molded PVC connector boot with heavy - duty strain relief provides superior protection of the delicate fiber. The fiber itself is encased in a protective, flexible Duraflex jacket that makes routing through entertainment furniture and shelving easy. A precision - polished termination and specially tuned fiber deliver incredibly accurate transfer of digital audio source signals. The resulting reduction in jitter-causing dispersion in the digital datastream means smoother, more natural sound. And because ILS100 is a purely optical means of transferring bitstreams, you won't run the risk of annoying ground problems like hum and buzz.
Monster's Precision Polished Toslink Connection Maximizes Transmission Traditionally, connections have proven to be the weak link in fiber optic design. Monster has overcome this obstacle by precision - polishing our connections for a perfect termination of the fiber. The result is high signal transmission, low internal reflection and minimization of jitter and time distortion for cleaner, more natural sound. Get the Best Possible Digital Audio Performance Whether decoding a Dolby Digital or DTS soundtrack, enjoying the pleasure of a high performance DAC, or recording your favorite music, Interlink Lightspeed 100 delivers clean, natural sound.

Same performance at many times the price,
This review is from: Monster Cable ILS100TM-2M Interlink LightSpeed 100 High Performance Digital Fiber-Optic Cable 2 m. Fiber-Optic Toslink-to-mini optical (Electronics)
The world's most demanding banks, corporations, and data centers use the world's best fiber optic cable to send a 10 gigabit multimode signal several kilometers. That fiber costs 60 cents per foot. Why does Monster Cable charge $60 or more for to send a single-mode 128kbps signal a few feet?I suggest a much cheaper option like the PTC 6ft Toslink to Mini Toslink Cable, which I've been using for weeks now with zero complaints. Save your money and spend it where it will really count: on quality headphones, speakers, or music.

This review is from: Monster Cable ILS100TM-2M Interlink LightSpeed 100 High Performance Digital Fiber-Optic Cable 2 m. Fiber-Optic Toslink-to-mini optical (Electronics)
This cable provides a bridge between your fiber-optic toslink miniport on the back of your laptop to your fiber-optic cable input on your home theater amplifier. For years, my laptop sat mostly dormant because I didn't know how to connect the red-lighted round hole on the back on my laptop to a standard fiber optic cable. Now that I found this cable with a mini plug (or you could use the mini plug adaptor on a regular cable) which I can plug it right into my home theater system.The quality of monster cable is well established, although many people would dispute the quality/price benefit, as the price is always higher than the quality. In this instance the point is hard to argue, as monster cable is one of the only quality manufacturers of a fiber-optic cable with a standard end and a mini plug end. I say quality manufacturers, since, with all due respect, I have never heard the name of the other manufacturers on this site that make these cables. I can testify, however, that this cord does a good job trasmitting the sound from my aged laptop, and I was impressed listening to compressed, low sampling rate mp3's on my home theater system. They sounded quite good, actually. I am looking forward to listening to "lossless" quality recordings in the future. I can imagine people with DVI out and mini toslink out could consider turning their laptops (any laptop, not just Apple!) into mini digital home entertainment centers when combined with a plasma HDTV and a home theater. In my own case, my laptop is so old it only has VGA out, but I am waiting for cables to be shipped that they make to connect dinosaurs like mine to the component video inputs. Regardless, and even without the video, this is certainly a neat solution when you find a new use for a product you already have and don't use often enough.
